Server Primes Documentation

Everything you need to go from a fresh server to a full monitoring dashboard in about five minutes.

Install the agent

One command on any Linux host. The agent auto-detects services, containers, and mounted volumes.

curl -sL https://get.serverprime.io | bash
serverprime login --token <YOUR_TOKEN>

Configure alerts

Alert rules live in a single YAML file or the dashboard. Adaptive baselines are on by default.

alerts:
  - metric: cpu.load
    threshold: adaptive
    channels: [slack, email]

Containers & orchestration

Enable Docker and Kubernetes collectors to track per-container CPU, memory, restarts, and pod health.

serverprime enable docker
serverprime enable kubernetes --namespace prod

REST API

Every metric, alert, and incident is available over the API for custom dashboards and automations.

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $SP_API_KEY" \
  https://api.serverprime.io/v1/servers
